The performance of a MIMO CDMA uplink code acquisition system is analyzed by considering spatial fading correlations. The detection performance in the presence of spatially correlated MIMO channel is presented. It is shown that the acquisition performance depends on the degree of spatial fading correlations. It is surprisingly seen that a MIMO code acquisition system provides worse performance than SIMO.
